interesting how the attack on the soybean oil and canola industry is coming from retail consumers at the same time as environmental lawmaking groups
Restaurants now advertising no seed oils.

the hits just keep coming at the biofuels sector ♻️ California is implicitly targeting the soybean and canola crushing industry in the US (farmers included)🌱👀 now we’ll have to find other homes for these biofuel products and many compliance systems do not like agricultural feedstocks to begin with
California's proposed limits on #biodiesel and renewable diesel made from #soybean oil or #canola oil are shocking. Beginning in 2028, each company is eligible for #LCFS credits for only up to 20% of their annual production. I hope I am reading this wrong, but I don't think so.

Keep your distance from government contracts. Period. I feel for this family.
The weaponization of our government continues. This attack on a hard-working, honest South Dakota ranching family is unbelievably scary & horrific. I also believe it's an attack on the freedom of speech & the press as Heather is a respected journalist covering ag policy issues.

4. This chart really puts the red ink in perspective. For average cash rent ground in Illinois the projected loss 50/50 production in 2024 is literally off the chart going back 25 years. We did have losses back in 2014 and 2015 but nothing comparable to what happened in 2023 and is projected for 2024. My guess is that one would have to go back to the depths of the farm financial crisis in the mid-1980s to see this much red ink in budgets.

This is what I fear most. The construction phase. Mountains of topsoil heaved and piled, never to regain its productivity. Endless construction in the mud. Endless drainage tile lines severed. And of course the glossy brochure will claim they will rectify & compensate
And just like that, the Carbon Pipeline became more than a hypothetical issue to our family.

Imagine if farmers in the US had to deal with this?
Xi Jinping is hiring 87,000 agriculture police officers, and they're coming for Chinese farmers. Farmers can only plant the crops the government approves. Today officers arrest this family and destroy all their banana trees——the government wants this family to grow sugar cane.

Ag is in a bad way. Input's are rising. Grain is falling. Farmers are going to be angry with their retailer/elevator. Retailer/elevator will be frustrated by lack of direction from the farmer. Folks, have MORE conversations about what you will need. Getting tough.

I think @TractorSupply corporate needs to see this. After their great statement ending woke policies, an employee in Hooksett NH wrote to a group of employees that this was about TSC "oozing ultra whiteness". The district manager has reportedly taken no action over this bigotry.
